MT. and Mrs Briggs In ROme-Some-
thing of Interest Concerning Their
Tour in the Old World.

The editor of the ARGUS is in receipt
of pleasant and interesting letter from
ex-Ald. NJ. NJ Briggs. who with his bride,
nee Miss Alice Burial. is masking tour of
the principal cities of the continent across
the seas. The letter is dated Hotel de
La Vile, Rome, and the writer after
speaking of the ARRIVAL IN Liverpool,
January 49, describes the trip by railroad
to London, a six days stay in the metrop-
oils of the world, the foggy weather
alone marriDg the pleasures of sight
seeing in the great city. Then the Cars
were taken to Paris where q few days
we're spent. when the cars were taken for
Nice, which Mr. Briggs speaks of as
grand Astounding in ripe oranges and
lemons aad beautiful roses; the weather
balmy as August. the ladies appearing in
summer dresses at the watering places,
Nice being one of the most popular of
these resorts. Nice Is described as
a lovely city--beautiful drives aud
grand scenery. From the highest points
orange groves, date palms and lovely
vineyards stretch along the Medi>
terranean as far as the vision OF the
eye extends. The hills raise gradually
one above the other, until the summit of
the highest is covered with snow. 1t was
this beautiful city. the surroundings OF
which Mr.. Briggs here describes, that has
been so recently visited by so destructive
an earthquake, attended by such sppall-
ing results.
Ancient Rome was reached FEB. 4lh,
where Mr. and Mrs Briggs were to re-
main until after the carnival festivities
before Lent. The days are spent in sight
seeing about the historical old city. which
from its seven hills once ruled the world
The first actual touch of winter such as
we in Rock Island have, Was felt Feb
9th, when the first snow of the season
came, and regular old Illinois storm, >

speak of as the fist in years that has
visited sunny Italy.
Mr. and Mrs. Briggs will visit Naples.
Florence, Vienna. Dresden, Berlin and
return to Paris before going back to
London 10 take steamer on the home-
ward voyage. From the tone of the
letter. Mr.. and Mrs. Briggs appear to be
joying their trip immensely, fact which
their many Rock Island friends will. it is
needless to state. be pleased to know.

Charley Haskins, of Milwaukee, an old
telegraph man, was in Europe recently ard
he tells some funny stories about the way
the telegraph business is managed over
there. For instance, he filed q message
in an office in London, and, out of curios-
ity. waited to see what became of it. The
receiving clerk did not put it in little
leather cup and shoot it up the pneumatic
tube to the operating room, as the Ameri-
can receiving clerk does Instead. he
hing it on file hook with u number Of
other messages and went on taking in
more messages, placing them on the same
hook In about half an hour the hook
was full, when the clerk called out to a
boy. In five minutes the boy was on his
way up the stairs to the operating room
with that bundle Of messages, and he
WASH in very much of hurry, either
No wonder Mr.. Haskns says the Ameri-
can telegrapher couldn't stand it to live
in that country.
They are slow over in England, but very
careful For instance, when they erect u
telegraph pole in the street of town or
city they plant it rs carefully as If they
were laying the foundation of 81 ,000,-
600 building. With the pole once up they
are not satisfied to brace it with the ser
vice wires, but to attach to it and
extend out and fasten in every direction
heavy guy wires, as clumsy as they are
unnecessary. There is no use trying to
tell the Englishman anything, either, or
TO suggest any better methods His in
variable reply, in q tone which seems to
leave no room for further argument, is:
well we have always done it that
way Chicago Herald

most amusing scene to philosophic
spirits recently occurred at London court
in a litigation concerning the ownership
of donkey. The presiding judge, Dor
rowing hint from Solomon and the
caliphs of Bagdad, had the animal brought
into court to test the allegation of the de-
PENDANT that it would eat bread or vegeta-
bles offered it with Lord Salisbury's com
pliments," but would reject the same
with symptoms Of loathing and contempt
when Mr.. Gladstone was named as the
donor. AS it happened, the willy quad
ruped when challenged by the claimant
not only devoured Unfortunately the
Tory and Liberal carrots, showing no
partisan spirit whatever, but, when the
experiment was acknowledged q failure,
set up such mixed notes of exultation and
protest that the magistrate, deafened by
the outrageous bray, summarily dismissed
the claim.-Chieago Herald.

In addressing the convention, the pres
ident and number of the largest honey
producers in the convention said the cli>
mate of eastern Iowa and western Illinois
produced plants from which honey could
be made equal if not superior to any
other honey 10 the world, not excepting
that from California
Mr.. Jacobs, of De Witt Iowa. large
honey producer. stated that last season he
travelled around the country and sold his
own and others honey, and where the
same was used, future market was Sc
cured, as the same was preferred to Cali
fornia honey. or that from any other part
of the country. Another thing in its
favor is the neat and tasty manner in
which it is put up and made ready to
market.

WHEREAS, Difficulty has arisen be,
tween certain parties. bee>keepers and
grape growers, as to bees puncturing
grapes; therefore be it
Rssotued. By this convention. which is
composed largely of grape-growers and
bee keepers here assembled, that they
have not. in one single instance. found
grapes worked upon by bees unless the
fruit had been first punctured by birds or
insects.
Mr.. Mead, an old time bce,keeper, said.
when called upon to speak, that he had
been in the business thirty OF forty years
and that he had always been accustomed
to use the same plan. He thought that if
he continued in the business another year
he would adopt the new plans, as they
appeared to give the most satisfactory re-
suits. During the time he has been in
the business there has been but two occa
sions on which his bees were DESTROYED
His bees are all in a healthy condition at
present.
The disposition of honey was discussed
at considerable length, some thinking
that the best way would be TO organize
and combine their forces and ask so
much for their honey This was thought
by others not to be exactly the thing to
do.

Fight Over q PedagOgue.

The pur.ieus of Andalusia is again IN
state of agitation. For a small village,
be il said, it creates as much sensational
gossip as any town in the county The
present excitement is over the appoints
ment of school teacher, and nearly
every taxpayer in the village is taking a
hand in the fight Readers Of the ARGUS
Will no doubt remember the scandalous
stories circulated against A. W. Smith.
the present principal of the school, and
lady teacher some tine ago. and which
nearly led to a divorce suit Smith
claimed to be perfectly innocent
OF the charges preferred against
him, and has made a determine
ed effort to be retained. As re-
suit the directors are at loggerhcads
Two of them haye engaged another
teacher, Mr.. Irwin Hayes, while the third
sticks to Smith. The director favorable
TO Smith has circulated petition for his
retention, which has been numerouslg
signed.
Thus the matter stands. Much bad
blood has been generated, and instead of
living in brotherly love the denizens Of
that burg view each other with suspicion
and distrust. Brother Smith seems to
be the under dog in the fight at present,
but be may still wiggle on top.

Indian Gamblers and Jockeys.

All Indians after a while become expert
card PLAYERS, ard The flatheads are no
exception . the rule These latter gentry
are not afraid to try their skill and nerve
with the sportive frontierSmen of the
northwest, with whom they frequently
have long sieges of draw. To these eX
perienced gamblers the local fry are as
children. Many young buck with no
inheritance TO speak of has enriched him
self amazingly at the expense of wayfarers
who have fallen by the wayside. Some
of these youngsters who draw the right
card at the right time have fine large
herds of ponies to their credit in conSe-
quence thereof As jockey riders the
Flatheads and their relations have per
haDs no equals on earth. Raised as they
are from childhood almost on a pony's
back, so to speak, it is no wonder they
become superior equeStrians.
When preparing for race the young
bucks skin themselves of their clothing
so as to present as little resistance to the
air as possible. A Flathead jockey
mounted for business is dressed in moth
ing more than brech clout and perhaps
a thin cotton shirt, which floats in the

or horse. Leaning forward on their hardy
little cayuses they dash down the race
course like the wind, jumping bitches
and lodging trees with precision and
skill truly marvellous. The white mans
race course is a fiat. level stretch of
ground, rolled smooth. over which the
animal simply runs while the rider has
nothing much to do except hold his seat.
On the other hand, an Indian will race
over any kind Of ground, among timber
or swimming steams, combining with the
simple speed of his animal individual skill
and Judgment in surrounding a score Of
obstacles and always coming under the
wire ahead. A white man seldom wins q
race from an Indian, and there is no
wonder for lt.-New York Commercial

tell them how to invest it SO that it would

another name for to gamble There
is. however, one means of making even a
small capital accumulate aud bear fruit
with no chance of loss Real estate is a
commodity which has always an intrinsic
value; power of producing something
which gives it a price, an impossibility
of destruction by any misfortune or acct
dent which gives it stability. There
are two ways IN which person
or large sum: The first by
loaning TO others portion of its
value. giving TO them the power of DOS
sessing what otherwise they could not,
and taking in return portion of the
product of such property in the form of
interest. To those who are satisfied
with reasonable income from this in
vestment. this offers the best and safest
way to solve the problem. The other
way is by buying lands with the expecta>
lion of an increase in the value. This
will be affected more or less by circum.
stances, but the certainty of gaining
something, and the possibility of an in
crease far beyond any obtainable rate of
